Took a dip in 2015 in stats, but in 2014 he was a stud. Maybe the new balls hurt the numbers?

I hope he has post season tired arm syndrome.

Lange & Poche are both at 105 IP.




He's at 113 for 2015 with only 2 complete games compared to 129 and 5 CGs in 2014. He can still roll late as apparent in the Super.

And he still has a 4/1 strikeout to walk ratio. Looks like he's a pitch to contact type of guy and relies on good defense behind him.

It's not exactly Little league either. Ask aTm if he can pitch.

At this point most the guys we are going to face are going to be very good.

news flash; the teams that make it to Omaha have great pitching staffs.

in order to win this thing, we will have to pitch and field great and then have some timely hitting.

I really think LSU can and will hit this guy and they will end up going to their BP early.

Hmm, the name sounds familiar. Pretty sure we've faced a dude named Morrison before, can't put my finger on it...
